The Broadway sensation is written by Lin-Manuel Miranda and is described as a is a groundbreaking, one-for-the-ages tale of one of America’s founding fathers. The show is a hip hop musical exploring the life and times of America’s founding fathers.  The hip-hop, rap and pop musical mixes history with modern music and tells the story of America’s fathers in a very unique and entertaining way.  ”Hamilton” is created by Lin-Manuel Miranda.  Rumor has it that while on vacation, Miranda picked up the biography of Alexander Hamilton written by historian Ron Chernow. Miranda was so inspired that he created a Broadway musical. The musical made it’s off- Broadway debut exactly a year ago ant by summer, the musical was so popular that the production moved over to the Richard Rodgers Theatre theater on Broadway. Since then, the show has received unprecedented acclaim and critics have been raving about it. The show also added a grammy to it’s growing list of awards which included 11 Tony awards this year.
